To the devil, I only have this to say:
“Even though you intended to hurt me, God intended it for good. It was his plan all along, to ensure the survival of many people. So, don’t worry. I myself will provide for you all that you need, both for you and your little ones.”
(Genesis 50:20, TPT)
I never liked homework in school and didn’t care much for taking notes at that time either. Years later that all changed as I became consumed with the scriptures and things of the Kingdom.
After I was baptized by Dr. Don Lynch in 2006, having received a prophetic word from him during the baptism, I believe the word imparted something to me. He said I would come up out of the water with a deep hunger for the word.
That literally took place that day and a few months later I found myself writing. In 2009 I started a blog site called “Radical Disciples – A Remnant Revolution”, where I have written close to 400 blog posts since then as well as a number of articles across social media platforms.
In the beginning, my spelling was. let’s just say, lacked grammar excellence and my spelling was terrible. However, over the years with Holy Spirit’s help, I believe my writing and style of writing have improved greatly, Thank you, Father.
In 2010 I started writing outlines and basically wrote them on what I believed would one day be turned into books. I attempted to turn them into books on numerous occasions but due to one thing or another, they never came to fruition.
Forward to November 13, 2023. It was on that day that the devil thought he was going to take me out or at least remove me from the battle with a massive stroke in the Frontal Lobe, which basically affects an individual’s motor skills, executive functioning, speech, language, and social skills.
My doctor said that I was very lucky because of the size and location I should have had symptoms which included motor impairments, problem-solving and judgment issues, behavioral changes, and difficulty with speech.
The MRI and brain scan all showed that this stroke should have left me with server impairments. However, the Lord had other plans. In December of 2015, I met a dear brother who has become a very close friend and fellow servant in the Kingdom, Paul Michel. The Lord used him to prophesy my encounter with Him several months later which took place on March 29, 2016.
He said I was about to encounter the Father and experience His true Love. And was that word accurate, in fact, it was life-altering in a good way as that encounter radically changed the way I view the Father and opened a spiritual door to which I have been swimming in the oceans of His love ever since!
Over the course of 9 years, the Lord has spoken to me numerous times through Brother Paul. Then on November 14, 2023, having no idea where I was or what had happened, Paul called me with a prophetic word from the Lord that He was going to erase everything the enemy had attempted to pout on me.
Within hours that word came to pass. In fact even to the amazement of the stroke specialist who was treating m,e in the hospital. She was standing at the foot of my bed explaining to me that they were going to have to increase my blood pressure medication as everything they had tried to that point had failed to bring it below 190/147.
As she was telling me this her eyes got very large, and she muttered “That’s impossible”. I immediately said, what’s impossible? Are you saying you’re not going to be able to bring my blood pressure down?
She said no, and pointed to the machine I was hooked up to, where my blood pressure had consistently read, even after multiple shots of medication to lower it, at 190/147. Except now it read, 110/77. It literally went down as she was talking to me.
I was released the next day, and I couple of days after getting home I heard Holy Spirit say, Now is the time to write those books. I thought great, as I had lost the flash drives I had all those years of notes on.
A couple of days later I came across a small box in my office that I hadn’t gone through since moving to our house in 2020 and guess what? In that box, I found the flash drives that contained
close to 10 years of extensive notes from some very in-depth studies as well as words and revelations that I had received over the course of 8 years.
So now, I spend my days taking those notes and turning them into lessons for our ministry school and into books as Holy Spirit leads me. What the enemy thought would create a disaster, or even destruction in my life, the Father has turned into opportunity and blessings.
Since that turning point in November, I am about 1/4 way through those years of notes. How many lessons and books are left to go? I don’t know, in fact, all I do know is that my days are designed, planned, and in the control of Holy Spirit. #SELAH
